Best time to visit
San Francisco is a year-round destination, but May to September (summer and autumn) offer the most stable weather. November is also appealing: less peak tourism than summer, mild temperatures (15–20 °C) and good visibility. Skip December and January if you're seeking lower prices, that's the holiday rush. February to March is another window with good fares and pleasant weather.
What to do when you arrive

The international airport (SFO) is roughly 20 km from the city centre, well served by BART (rapid transit), bus and taxi. The city is compact and walkable in many areas.
